Summer Intern – United Kingdom

Summer Intern in the United Kingdom

Dates: May 24 – August 1, 2024

Application Deadline – January 15 (full funding due April 15)

When you spend a summer in the United Kingdom with AT-3 (a UWM partner), you’ll serve & be trained in a local church. Learn and grow in your understanding of God’s love & his church, forge deep friendships with fellow interns and those in your placement church, all while opening up doors for your future launch into ministry!

 

Vast secularization has drastically changed the United Kingdom for the past 10 years with only 5% of the population now attending a church of any kind. Little more than 3% of population as a whole are born-again believers part of a local church. In God’s providence, the nations have also flooded to the UK- making it possible to not only share God’s glory with the UK, but share in English to people from nations with little or no access to the gospel. Bible-believing Christians are a tiny minority in a mass of unbelief and vague spirituality. There is great opportunity to be a part of how God is moving in a place we have full access to – the United Kingdom.
